It's been pretty busy around mine and Shell's house since I got back from the Rogue... The beginnings of Spring are in full bloom in Portland, which has increased my yard work exponentially.

However, Shell and I have had a chance to get out and have fun (not that yard work isn't fun, just a different kind of fun)... We've paddled 4 times since I got home and went diving once at Octopus Hole, just north of Hoodsport, Washington:

It was a great set of dives... getting better at my air consumption and bouyancy. Shell and I did a 38 minute and 41 minute dive along the wall and saw several Giant Pacific Octopi and a huge Wolf Eel. I'm totally loving scuba diving!

On tap for the next couple of weeks: paddling this weekend with our friend Ann Stephenson for her 40th B-Day paddle, diving Sunday up on the Canal... more paddling and diving the following 2 weeks, then off on our road trip adventure to California... diving and paddling our way from San Diego to Monteray, with a stop at Disney for good measure :-)
